Their first event in September is already sold out, with the tickets capped at 300 - and we really can't wait to share a fun day with everyone!

The Moncton Highland Games 2026 Broadsword and Military Sabre tournament yesterday went off beautifully! Unfortunately due to weather we had to use our back up venue. With 51 registrations from as far away as Rimouski, the field was competitive, comradely and excellent.

We'll be posting a full event write up with information on the results for all four divisions. Until then, here are a few pictures of our fencers, most of the finalists and a big THANK YOU to all participants, organizers and our partners at the Moncton Highland Games
